What’s (for you) the ideal MSTR allocation relative to your total crypto exposure?
Hello Reddit MSTR
I’ve rarely seen such polarized opinions on a single stock as with MSTR.
On one side, people call it a scam, a Ponzi, or something that will go straight to zero in the next few years.
On the other, they see it as one of the most innovative pieces of financial engineering around … in plain: a way to get leveraged Bitcoin exposure without the risk of a margin call.
I’m curious where you land on this in practice:
What percentage of your total crypto-related exposure is in MSTR (vs. spot BTC or other BTC proxies)?
A lot of people I know are still heavily in BTC and only lightly in MSTR (or not at all). At the same time, a few friends have sold most or all of their BTC to go fully into MSTR.
How are you allocating, and what’s the reasoning behind the size of your MSTR position?
Thanks for sharing your thinking!

convince me to go all in
I'm bullish on btc and this seems like a no brainer dividend. Convince me or dissuade me to go all in... I would really appreciate it and thanks so much
MSTR peaked ahead of BTC again in 2024. Will it do it in 2028 too?
Hey MSTR investors and followers
In the last cycle MSTR was usually running ahead of Bitcoin. The premium was expanding hard and the stock was making its big moves or local tops before BTC even finished topping. A lot of people remember 2024 where MSTR was leading and then the mNAV compressed later while BTC was still grinding higher.
Now looking at the next big cycle most people talk about 2028 after the halving into 2029, do you think MSTR peaks ahead of BTC again?
Couple questions:
• Do you think the mNAV premium expands hard again like it did in 2024 or is that less likely now?
• If BTC tops somewhere in 2028-2029 do you see MSTR making its high earlier than Bitcoin itself?
• Or has all the preferreds and the bigger debt stack and constant issuance changed it so MSTR just lags or tracks BTC more this time?
• Anyone watching specific mNAV levels for MSTR vs BTC in the next run?
Curious what people who were around in 2024 think for 2028. Not really looking for exact price targets more if the “MSTR peaks first” pattern still holds or not.

Why is no one talking about MSTR's proposed MSCI exclusion?
The decision is expected to be announced by 16 October 2026.
MSTR’s mNAV is still in the ~7th percentile after a 70%+ rally
Hello Strategy Investors on Reddit
Been thinking about this a lot lately. Saw that data from On-Chain Mind where even after MSTR ran more than 70% off the lows (the $80 area), the mNAV was still only in like the 6th or 7th percentile of its whole history. Price recovered a ton but the multiple barely moved. That stuck with me.
I get why people are waiting for sub-100 again. Feels safer. But I’m starting to doubt it actually comes back. The company structure is different now with all the preferred stuff and how they raise capital. What if we just never see those prices again and then it starts grinding through 300, 400, 600 while a lot of us are still sitting on the sidelines waiting for the perfect dip that doesn’t show up?
My plan right now is still adding when it dips while this percentile stays low. Not trying to catch the exact bottom, just don’t want to be the guy who watched it run without having a decent position. My average is around 110 on a few thousand shares so I’m already in, but still open to adding more if we stay in this kind of range.
Curious what everyone else is doing though.
You still accumulating here or waiting for something lower?
Where do you actually stop buying? Price level, percentile, portfolio size, or something else?
You planning to sell some at certain levels or just ride it all the way through 2040?
And how are you thinking about the actual residual claim for common equity with all the preferreds and converts sitting in front of it?
Would rather hear real approaches than just “to the moon” or “it’s a scam.” What’s your thinking?

Is MSTR coiling for its next big move?
Since September 19, MSTR has been consolidating around the 50% midpoint of its massive descending channel, stretching from the $543 all-time high to the $82 bear market low.
What's caught my attention:
🟢 Recent downside moves have been relatively muted
🟢 Price continues to hold near the channel midpoint
🟢 The 200-day moving average turned up for the first time since September 2025
Is MSTR building energy for an explosive next leg higher? 👀📈
Are you guys more bullish or bearish right now? What do you expect this October/November?
I know btc is quite in a strong position right now and I entered with around 35% of my dry powder at 130 but I'm still frozen like I'm in a Morton's fork, should I DCA every week for two months with that 65% remaining?
MSTR vs ASST
It seems like ASST is the better investment due to a better balance including less debt (convertible bonds). Is anyone considering this as option?

STRC | Buybacks vs Trading Activity (Part 2)
10 weeks later, through 9-27, Strategy has spent ~$1.28B on STRC buybacks, retiring obligations on 13.27M shares. Over the ongoing buyback window, that spending is equivalent to ~19.42% of dollar trading volume. Strategy has no doubt provided a substantial bid, but how much of the rebound can (or should) be attributed to it?
Between 6-26 and 7-17 (before the first reported purchases), STRC had already rebounded [14.38%], BTC gained [7.47%], and MSTR rose [15.24%]. The other Strategy preferreds also recovered: STRK [+14.76%], STRF [+13.91%], and STRD [+12.21%].
From 7-17 through the 9-30 close, BTC gained another [30.33%] and MSTR [61.40%], while STRC gained [16.48%] from $85.29 to $99.35. Over that same period, STRK gained [20.14%], STRD [21.00%], and STRF [7.68%]. The other Strategy prefs did this with no intervention and no buybacks.
To be fair, the other prefs are different instruments, with different risks, so this isn’t an apples-to-apples comparison. Nonetheless, this context makes a buyback-driven STRC recovery difficult to defend.
My Read: The driving force is the broader recovery across BTC, MSTR, and Strategy’s capital structure; claims that credit the STRC rebound to the buybacks are comforting narratives. After over $1B spent, I also think that the market is trading Strategy’s buyback intervention itself, rather than STRC itself.
Once market sentiment shifted early this summer and BTC dropped below $60K, the capital structure fell with it. The “x-factor” with STRC was leverage, which IMO accelerated and worsened the unwind from par.
TL/DR: STRC has the biggest footprint, is designed to have lower volatility than BTC and thus is slower to move. Leverage takes it down on an elevator; the Capital Structure takes it back up with the stairs.
My original question still remains: will STRC sustain healthy trading near par when Strategy’s intervention steps back? This will tell us a great deal about how the market is forward-pricing BTC near term and will test market demand for Strategy Digital Credit.
